Damn...that's one of those pictures that is both beautiful and sad. Hope it was an epic smoke.

Guardian Of The Farm Apollo Seleccion De Warped Natural

This 6 X 44 dandy is a nice smoke indeed. Rich and medium 'strength' with that recognizable flavor that I call Nicaraguan Spice. Long finish that lingers on the palate between draws. Mellows a little at around the halfway point and the flavor profile changes. Dominant flavors are still the same, but the nose exhale has taken on a woodsy flavor, with a nice anise flavor on the finish.

Mucielago Rabito (6.5" X 46)

Having tried and enjoyed the Murcielago toro and lancero, I was pleasantly surprised to find a lonsdale size on the Famous auction site. Snagged a fiver and have had one nekkid and in the low RH humi for a couple of months now.

A bit less bite in the nostrils than the lancero, more prominent coconut flavors than either the lancero or toro. Solid medium "strength" in the first half, kicks it up a notch around halfway.

Like the other sizes I've tried, no major twists and turns in this cigar. But it was very enjoyable.
